Hats off to Ray Wilson (PFSupercars)!!
Hey guys. Some of you may or may not know, my car has been up at Ray's shop for the past couple weeks getting finished up. I went up yesterday to see how things were progressing. When I got there it was on the dyno with Ray tuning.
Before I get into that, I just want to thank Ray for doing a great job with re-wiring the car, tuning it, fixing the trigger wheel, and fabricating a new bracket for my Tec coils. (which look great)
Before I left he had just begun tuning and already made 405rwhp at 12psi, still running hog rich. That may not seem high, but remember Im running a pretty big (and laggy) T-88H turbo, which doesn't start to really breath till about 20psi. But lag has benefits like making a **** load more power up top at the 30psi range. (Supra *** kicking power!) Which is my goal....lol...
Anyhow, Ray said I could take the car then, but if I kept it w/ him a couple more day's he'd make it perfect. (drivability etc..) So I figured good things come to those who wait. I go to pick it up this week. Can't wait.
If you guys need anything done, I recommend Ray, hands down!
Thanks again to Ray!

Nice Ernie. I actually have to call Ray to check up on things. My car is in his hands now as well for substantial power and I am liking what I have heard from yourself and last weeks T-78 work he did.
You probably have one already, but if you need a ride up there during the week let me know..I'd like to see my baby and check in with Ray.

Yes I did get onto a fender bender this weekend on my way to drop the car off at PFS. The car is at Rays. It's not to bad. I lost a bumper, fender, drivers side headlight cover and the wheel well liner. Nothing else was hurt. The car still rune just fine. I just have to source the parts and paint them. I should be able to get it all fixed up in no time. It could have been a lot worse. I should have been playing closer attention but accidents happen I guess.
On a lighter note, Ryan and I blew up his RX8.

To set the record, Will didn't do anything but put some new irons in my motor. No porting at all. But props to Will for getting me out of a jam. Its good to have "true friends". It was a shame the engine had to be rubuilt at all, but when a side seal spring is totally missing, and its ported so high it pinched a corner seal, breaking an apex seal and got overlap so it had to be rebuilt with only 50miles on the engine.
Thankfully now all is well with Ray.

BTW Ernie I saw your car there today parked next to that other pretty blue car. It was too clean so I hocked a clam on your tire for you.

Ray keeps us bad northern MD boys under a tight leash so we don't rile up the others Good luck with the shoot Ernie. Let me know when you have some free time once the car is back so I can see what the power is going to feel like!!
